Mike and Melissa Fletcher continue to pray for everyone involved in Wednesday’s shooting and both believe this community, as it has in the past, will unite once more.

“It just really hits home. It’s not something we or the officers in our community thought would happen today. But thank God for the way it turned out, because it could have been much worse,” said Fletcher.
